Seashells and Sand

September 23, 2011

We had our first family vacation in three years a week ago. We went to Ocean City, NJ. We’d never been there before and we enjoyed our time so much. Unfortunately, the kids all got Hand Foot and Mouth disease while we were there. But thankfully, we were still able to still make memories, relax, and get lots of reading done.

The beach was awesome. The sand was as soft as powder and shells were all over the sand waiting to be discovered by little eager hands. The boys loved going on our “night hikes” when we went out after supper to find the shells that had come up in high tide.

We had delicious donuts–made to order while you wait–at Browns on the boardwalk, which we enjoyed while watching the surfers.

Oh so much fun! Love the pictures of you & the kids, and Josh & the boys! I also love the dark moon over the ocean picture. How did you take that one? Guess I need a better camera – someday maybe…
Thanks for sharing your beautiful, thoughtful pictures and thoughts.
